to their destinations. The long-distance trains from Delhi used to ply fromthree stations namely Delhi Junction (OldDelhi), New Delhi and Hazrat NizamuddinRailway Stations. These stations lacked theinfrastructure facilities to handle such highpassenger rush. Also, Delhi is the connectingstation for the cities in the Northern statesPunjab , Haryana , Himachal Pradesh ,Uttarakhand and Jammu and Kashmir. Withincreasing passenger pressure at the existingstations, the requirement of additional majorpassenger terminals was identified by theNorthern Railways. The East-bound trainsfrom Delhi to the states of Uttar Pradesh ,Bihar, Orissa , Jharkhand West Bengal andother North-eastern states had to cross thebridge over River Yamuna as all the threestations are located on the other side of theriver. Thus, the area of Anand Vihar wasselected in the trans-Yamuna region toconstruct a mega-railway terminal. In2003, Union railway minister Nitish Kumarannounced that Delhi would get a new railterminal at Anand Vihar. The stationwas commissioned in the 2003 rail budget[6]and in December 2003, Northern Railwayfloated a tender to employ consultants forPhase-I of Anand Vihar railway stationproject.The foundation stone of thestation was laid by the then Union Minister ofRailways, Nitish Kumar on 25 January 2004.The first phase was expected to becompleted by 2006.*******************************************#Stationinformation:-#Opened:-19 December 2009.#Electrified:-Yes.#Stationcode:-ANVT.#Zone:-NR.#Division:-Delhi.#Noofplatforms:-3(1 Phase).#Parking:-Available.#Baggagechecking:-Available.*******************************************#TrainsfromANVT:-12211/12212 Muzaffarpur Garib Rath Express.12557/12558 Sapt Kranti Express.12367/12368 Vikramshila Express.12387/12388 Jansasharan Express.14005/14006 Lichchavi Express.12505/12506 North East Express.12487/12488 Seemanchal Express.12443/12444 Haldia Express.12427/12428 Rewa Express. 12039/12040 Kathgodam Shatabdi Express.22407/22408 Varanasi Garib Rath Express.22409/22410 Sasaram Garib Rath Express.12569/12570 Jayanagar Garib Rath Express.22405/22406 Bhagalpur Garib Rath Express.15621/15622 Kamakhya Express. 12817/12818 Jharkhand Swarna Jayanti Express Via BKSC.12873/12874 Jharkhand Swarna Jayanti Express Via BRKA. ****************************************#Facilities:- The station has facilities like booking office,booking counters, waiting halls with facilitiesfor handicapped passengers, separate arrivaland departure areas, cloak rooms,reservation halls, toilets, parcel and luggageoffice, operational and serviceaccommodation and parking areas.Thestation also has some modern amenities likeATMs, a touch-screen enquiry system, foreignexchange counters, commercial andmaintenance offices, food plazas, and acomputerised ticketing facility.
